If you only knew, if you could only see
the trials and problems that are troubling me...

You're my life, my heart, my soul
You're the one that makes me whole...

Little ones, oh so dear
When they cry, I hold them near...

What I would give just to have you
Here by my side, I know what I'd do...

When I'm in bed and all alone
Wishing we were together in one home...

One true person, one true friend
Who stuck with me right til' the end...

When you were young someone gave you
An old guitar to let your talent shine through...

When we're apart for anytime
Thoughts of you run through my mind...

You may pick and you may fuss
You may tease and you may cuss...

Tennessee is orange
Kentucky is blue...

Deep brown eyes, the stare of this man
The sometimes harsh words, the gentle touch of his...
